Golfing machine 101 :) but just to show you that this rule is not carved in stone, there is one golfer whose butt end of the club never pointed at the plane line half way into the backswing. The butt of his club actually pointed to an area half way between the plane line and his toes.This golfer was not a bad player considering he violated many rules of golf that existed during his time. His name? Jack Nicklaus. Oh and throw Jim Furyk and Rori Sabatini in there too :)
so, I feel dumb asking this but, the golf swing is done by feeling yourself swinging in a circular motion around your body, or dragging the club straight back and up?
no, its different for everyone because what you think you're doing and what you are actually doing can be two separate things, your best bet is to get a teacher to get your swing sorted, and use that as a starting point - get the feel of that swing and as it becomes natural and comfortable - then begin improving it once its consistent
@Nightwing690 he explains it, the arms go up and down, the body turns or pivot. to coordinate both things is the key, because the ball is out in front of you but it's also down in the floor. the simpler the better and more repetitive. but never never turn your arms around your body or you'll have to compensate from that position.
This is impossible to check unless you have a top camera, he would be far better explaining the plane covering short irons /driver most people could then relate to something meaningfull!

This is all wrong. The clubhead follows a path that is always perpendicular to the clubhead. And, the clubhead being parallel to the club on the ground is wrong because look at the clubhead in this pos. (1:12) and imagine a path going through the clubhead perpendicular to the it. His shoulder angle should be down, and the clubhead at least 20 degrees inside that club, with the clubhead toe pointing more foward, bringing the clubhead back to the ball square. Ref. points only, not reality...
Id like to see a correct backswing instruction...I feel like im all the sudden slicing my irons because my backswing feels wrong...I think it would also be good to show how the shaft and wrists change on their way up to the top of the swing...good video tho
@FartnYoDinner ur probably a little Ott (Over The Top) which steve called it Out-to-In, trying taking the club a little outside on the way back, hit a few balls that way, then go back to your normal swing, and you'll notice a difference, it helped me.
wow i thought this was Steve Kerr for a second

26 degree shoulder tilt on backswing and turn 55 degrees ( pga tour average) will get you on plane.
